CH pedals and EXL500

Anyone using this combo, how do you set it up?  I choose the CH pedal with
CH steering wheel option and I get the not connected error.  I've tried them
all in the list.

Thanks

CH pedals and EXL500

Maybe this will help.  I know it works fine for me.  (I assume you're
using Win85/98.)

How do I set up the EXL-500 within Windows 95/98?
To set up the EXL-500 wheel in Windows 95/98:

1.In your control panel, double click on game controllers.  
2.Remove all controllers listed in game controllers  
3.Click on Add and select 2-axis, 4-button joystick. Choose OK.  
4.With 2 axis, 4 button controller listed (with a Status of OK), click
on Properties  
5.Leave the rudder/pedals box unchecked  
6.Click on "Calibrate"

Calibrating the EXL 500

1.To set the center position, press ONE of the yellow buttons ONCE  
2.To set the range of motion, move the wheel all the way to the left
and to the right.
Let the wheel return to center, and then step on the right pedal
(cross hair will go up), Take your foot off the pedal. Now step on the
left pedal (cross-hair will go down).  
3.Take both feet off the pedals and your hands off the wheel and press
ONE of the yellow buttons ONCE.  
4.To confirm the center position, press ONE of the yellow buttons
ONCE.  
5.Click on Finish and then click Apply

From this point you should be ready to race any Windows based game.
For DOS based games, consult the game's manual or publisher for more
information.
